I’m really thinking about my path and where I want to go.
“I found the process and the new résumé so stimulating. It really jolted me into realizing that I’m going to be responsible to a job interviewer for everything in my résumé. I need to be able to talk about it. I understand more how to tell my story, the common threads, and what themes I want to convey because I’m not just trying to get the next job. I’m really thinking about my path and where I want to go. I really enjoyed the process.”

worked out precisely as I had hoped

I’m pretty sure I would not have landed this gig without your help.”

I just didn’t even know where to start.
“I’ve spent more time than I care to admit putting together what is still a pretty awful résumé. I just didn’t even know where to start. I’ve been on the hiring-side myself, and I completely agree with you about the needed changes.”

You are my Marie Kondo
“I do want to compliment you on doing a really great job on my CV, CV addendum, and LinkedIn. It’s been so great to have your broader perspective. You are my Marie Kondo—you’ve really decluttered my long, varied career history. This has been incredible and I’ve really appreciated your help in bringing me into the modern age. And if you ever need a review let me know.”
- Former judge and former counsel to the governor
It was a joy
“Beautiful. Your strategy makes a lot of sense. The new résumé talks more much about the transferrable skills, rather than wasting time on stuff that just doesn’t matter. This is amazing. Thank you for helping me articulate things running around in my brain that I didn’t have the right words for. It was a joy watching it happen.”
- Compliance and risk management attorney
enormously valuable
“I have to tell you, the response to the CV has been extremely positive—from recruiters, from the CEOs, CFOs, and COOs interviewing me, and from my networking contacts. It’s engendered a lot of interest. The process of just communicating with you has been enormously valuable. It gave me a lot of clarity in how to think about my career. I had the tendency to be dismissive about my branding, but now that I’m interviewing, people have positive feedback about how I’ve positioned my career.”
- CLO for public healthcare companies
